Field Day!

We had a great time at Field Day last week! The weather was BEAUTIFUL! Thank you to all the parents and volunteers who came and spent the day with us. I know the students had a great time!

Here are some pictures from our day:




Bridge Project

In Math and Science we are becomming bridge designers! The students are planning, designing and building bridges out of nothing but white glue and popsicle sticks. They seem to be really enjoying this project! We will test our bridges next week to see how strong they are.

Here are some pictures of our architects at work:

Fifth Grade T-Shirt

Today is THE LAST DAY to order the 5th Grade T-Shirt! We have sent home a few flyers but I thought it might be easier if you were able to just click it.

The shirt looks like this:


It has all the names of our Fifth Grade class of 2011!

The shirts are $5 and can ONLY BE ORDERED ONLINE! We were hoping that the students would order them and then wear them to the 5th Grade Party in June and then be able to wear them as we did our Celebration march around the school on the last day!


Please order one! :)

This Week


Thursday is Science TAKS! The students have been studying really hard for this for a LONG time. Please make sure that your student gets a good amount of sleep on Wednesday night and eats a healthy breakfast on Thursday. We will have muffins and orange juice at school...but you may want to feed them before.

As always, no cell phones, backpacks or visitors at school on TAKS days.
